I turned the stem off, rebooted and things came back right. Also, it was with an earlier version of Sendero GPS.

It was showing me being eighteen blocks south of where I was. It had the direction correct but the street was wrong. -- By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends. -- robert Doc Wright http://www.wrightplaceinc.net msn godfearer15@xxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Grabowski To: gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, April 27, 2009 6:26 AM Subject: [gps-talkusers] Tip of the week April 27 Force GPS heading: this option allows you to tell the system the heading you will be traveling. For example you exit a subway and always head west. The GPS will not know the direction of travel until you move for a time. To change your initial heading press ENTER with H on the BT and READ with H on the QT. You are then presented with a menu with the following options: North, Northeast, East, Southeast, South, Southwest, West, Northwest, by degrees and unknown heading. Selecting any Compass heading sets your heading temporarily to the desired direction. If you wish to set the heading to a specific degree i.e. 121, select the "by degrees" option. Selecting unknown forces your heading to be in an unknown state. Once you move for 15 seconds or so, your temporary heading will be replaced by the real GPS heading.
